Ohh, come on, there's a huge difference between Georgia the Country and Georgia the State. Georgia is a WHOLE country. Like, bigass, we got troups, "why don't we take this outside, former Soviet country-style", international trade, country.
Disambigging those two would be like disambigging "Paris" to separate "Paris, Texas" and "Paris, France". This is the worst kind of US-centrism.
I have no position on exactly how this disambiguation should work. However, I would like to point out that in terms of population, physical size, total international trade, total GDP, per capita GDP, the US state of Georgia is far bigger than the nation of Georgia.
So the "Paris, Texas" versus "Paris, France" comparison is a bit sketchy, at least.
